There is a Stack Exchange Enterprise option for internal use only (i.e. not public internet). The pricing makes this feasible for large organizations only. You can email team at stackoverflow dot com and your inquiry will be routed to the correct place.

Note: this is currently an option (2013-03-07) irrespective of the lack of public information on the matter and previous blog postings indicating it is not possible.

Stack Exchange no longer provides a subscription service nor can we license the software to create 3rd party sites. There is a Stack Exchange Enterprise version available for internal use only (i.e. not public internet), but it is very expensive and meant for very large enterprises only.

The only way to create a Stack Exchange site is through our community-driven process we call Area 51. It's a community-driven process where groups of experts come together to build new Q&A sites that work just like Stack Overflow. You can read more about that process here:

Does the enterprise edition use the latest engine and get all the improvements as they happen or is it the old white label 1.0 version?

The code was forked off of the 1.0 version long ago. I imagine bug fixes and such are supported, but it is not being updated alongside the current Stack Exchange Network codebase.

How expensive is 'very expensive', or at least where do I go to get that detail? Thanks!

@Griffith, Well we can make a guess. Probably between 6 digits to 9 digits ;) However companies would rather use OSQA because when there are bugs, they could simply send engineers to the open-source team to fix it directly.
